    Labubre, thanks for the responses. With a lot of searching online, I found and ordered these from AliExpress. https://www.aliexpress.us/item/2255800868204144.html?spm=a2g0o.order_detail.order_detail_item.2.3dc8f19cQNzd73&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa They might be just a bit too large a diameter to fit, but hoping to be able to modify them enough to work. But I'll look around for the B210 ones you linked just in case. Good luck with your project. I definitely will finish my 280Z restoration in 2024. I actually drove it on the road right before Christmas, first time since 1992. I've owned it since 1989. Thanks again, Jim

    Seb I realize your post is an old one, but I'm wondering if you ever found center caps for your XXR wheels? I'm trying to do the same for some XXR 531 16 X 8 wheels Jim
  4. siteunseen, thanks for that. That tells me essentially what I need to know which is all 280's have the same dash. Jim
  5. I may have a line on a used dashboard which hopefully is in acceptable condition for the Z restoration I'm currently working on. Looks like there are three versions of dashes for the S30's over the years, however from 1974 to 1978 they all have the same dash. Could someone with knowledge of dash versions confirm if this is correct please? Thanks, Jim

    Yeah, I guess it is factory. Thanks Mark. Jim

    I'm restoring a 1976 280Z, currently working on stripping, priming and painting the radiator support and surrounding areas. Looking at the metal patch in the picture, which is above the passenger side rail and directly behind the radiator support, I'm curious to know if this was done at the factory. Looks like it is mostly professionally spot welded. But the crappy spot welds at the top edge makes me wonder if someone added it a some point, or maybe it is OEM and someone just did a bad fix. There is another one like it on the driver's side. Wondering if someone can take a quick look at their Z and let me know if you have something like it. If so, I'll probably just fix the bad welds and move on. I appreciate the help. Jim
